Why Railway board never took action for increasing the frequency of this train? Earlier it is the direct train to Varanasi but later during Lalu's time as a RM, this train was forcibly extended to Chhapra in 2008 and many South Indians were protested against this. I saw often this train many spiritual tour operators using this train usually above 50-60 ages for visiting Prayagraj Varanasi for doing Pind Daan, Pitru/Shraddha Karma etc also lots of South people visit this above places. Better SR can run another train to Varanasi via BPQ G NIR JBP route for shortest route if slot is not available and there is not even a daily train to Varanasi to Chennai since ages. Travelling in Sanghamitra/Bagmati/other weekly trains towards Bihar and changing at DDU is quite riskier as from an perspective of South Indian spiritual traveller. My family members (my Dad, Grandmother, my Aunt) etc travelled...
more... in this train. Also need to increase frequency of Kashi Tamil Sangam and Rameshwaram Banaras express as well as there are lot of temples dedicated to Bhagavan Shiva all over Tamilnadu.
please wait...Translate to EnglishYo, why the heck hasn't the Railway board done anything to bump up the number of trips this train does? It used to be a direct ride to Varanasi, but then during Lalu's time as a Railway Minister, he forced it to go all the way to Chhapra in 2008. Man, loads of South Indians were so pissed about that. This train is a hit with all those older folks heading to Prayagraj and Varanasi for religious stuff like Pind Daan and all that jazz. Southern peeps love hitting up those spots. Southern Railways should really think about adding a new train to Varanasi through a different route if there ain't space here. It's a bummer there aren't regular trains to Chennai either. Taking the Sanghamitra or Bagmati trains and switching at DDU is mad stressful for us South Indian spiritual folks. My old man, grandma, and aunt have rode this train too. Oh, and they gotta start running Kashi Tamil Sangam and Rameshwaram Banaras express more often too! Tamil Nadu has so many Shiva temples, man.
please wait...Translate to HindiRailway board ne kabhi is train ki frequency badhane ke liye kadam kyu nahi uthaye? Pehle yeh seedha Varanasi tak ka train tha par baad mein Lalu ke samay as a RM, 2008 mein forciblyy yeh train Chhapra tak extend kar di gayi thi aur bohot saare South Indians iske khilaf protest kar rahe the. Main hamesha dekhta hoon ki bohot saare spiritual tour operators is train ko use karte hain jo zyadatar 50-60 years ke log hote hain jo Prayagraaj aur Varanasi jaane ke liye Pind Daan, Pitru/Shraddha Karma waghera karne aate hain. Behtar SR ek aur train chala sakti hai Varanasi jaane ke liye BPQ G NIR JBP route ke through shortest route par agar slot available nahi hai aur ek bhi daily train Varanasi se Chennai tak since ages nahi hai. Sanghamitra/Bagmati/aur doosri weekly trains mein Bihar ki taraf safar karna aur DDU mein change karna South Indian spiritual traveler ke perspective se kaafi risky hai. Meri family members (mera Dad, Grandmother, my Aunt) etc is train mein safar kiye hain. Aur Kashi Tamil Sangam aur Rameshwaram Banaras express ki frequency bhi badhani chahiye kyunki Tamilnadu mein Bhagavan Shiva ke bohot saare temples hain.
